We've been receiving some telephone calls and emails pertaining to the following:
Next round of interviews that the Board will be holding for LTOs. In February, the Board will be sending communication via 1st Class ASKING if anyone is interested in an LTO. Once responses from members are collected, then those interested will be contacted with interview dates. Since there are still members on the LTO List who have not been placed in long-term assignments, the Board has no plans to open the list in the interim.
